What is the purpose of the preamble in the Constitution?

  1. To outline the Constitution's limitations

  2. To list the laws of the land

  3. To introduce the Constitution

  4. To detail the rights of citizens

The correct answer is: To introduce the Constitution

The preamble in the Constitution serves as an introduction to the document and outlines the overall purpose and goals of the Constitution. Option A is incorrect because the limitations of the Constitution are outlined in the body of the document, not in the preamble. Option B is incorrect because the Constitution does not list specific laws, but rather establishes the framework for creating laws. Option D is incorrect because the detailed rights of citizens are listed in the Bill of Rights, not in the preamble. Overall, the preamble serves as a statement of intent for the Constitution, setting the tone for the rest of the document.
